Set your creativity free and learn how to capture likeness in any style with 30+ videos and 6+ hours of content
Capturing likeness is a skill you can master!
Do you struggle to truly capture the essence of a person when drawing them? Have you ever felt limited when changing styles, feeling like you lose your subject's identity when you step out of realism? Are you a self-taught artist looking to strengthen your observation and illustration skills?
Capturing likeness is a skill that anyone can learn and refine!
IÂ designed this course, Capturing Likeness: A Guide Without Style Limits, for art enthusiasts of all levels, from beginners to those already illustrating. You will learn how to understand, observe, and translate facial features, expressions, and personality into any style using practical techniques.
 Want to start? Let's get drawing!Â
Hi! I’m Alex,
I’m a self-taught character designer, illustrator, comic artist, and content creator. Inspired early on by my love for 2D animation and manga, I built my career step by step and have worked with studios and publishers like Paramount, Dark Horse Comics, and Magpie Games.
The easiest way I learned was through observation. I studied artists I loved, I watched videos of artists drawing. I tried to replicate what they did. Through demos and dissecting examples, I want to help you improve your skills of observation and share how I simplify shapes, and explore styles.
I started out painting portraits of people and their pets, then moved into comics, first indie projects, and eventually worked with Dark Horse Comics. Some of my work includes: The Legend of Korra: Patterns in Time, Avatar Legends: The Roleplaying Game, Legend of Korra: Mystery of Penquan Island, Critical Role – Vox Machina Origins III #4, and various indie comic covers.
Envision Your Creative Potential
Imagine completing my course and unlocking your ability to capture likeness confidently in any style.
Picture yourself developing the skills to observe faces more clearly and translate features and expressions without fear of losing identity.
You may have admired other artists and felt unsure about why your drawings didn’t quite feel right. But now, you can recognize the progress and strength in your work.
How does that feel?
Today, you can choose to invest in your artistic growth. Investing in yourself is a powerful step toward confidence and creative freedom.
Understanding likeness can transform the way you draw and how you see people. Take the first step today.
In this course, we’ll explore essential techniques and the tools you need to understand, simplify, and stretch likeness across styles.
I’m excited to guide you on this creative journey.
At the end of the course you will be able to:
Observe
You will learn how to analyze references, including understanding facial proportions, shape relationships, and key features to capture strong likeness across different styles.
Choose References
You'll learn what makes the difference between a good or a bad reference. We will cover how to combine references and lastly, how to use a reference so it doesn't limit you in your piece.
Stretch Style
Master how to move beyond the photo and stretch likeness into its simplest form. Take the step from realism to simple cartoon and learn when style really matters.Â
Course Content
The course has 7 modules for 6+ hours of learning and practicing. You can pause and replay the videos as much as you want.Â
The course is suitable for all artists, regardless of your skill level. There’s no explicit content, just observation, practice and new skills.
I recommend taking the course in order, as the lessons are structured to guide you from the basics to more in-depth techniques and help you build your skills layer by layer.
The more you practice, the more your confidence will grow. ✨
Practice makes perfect!
In this course you will learn:
MODULE 1 & 2
We begin by defining the core principles of likeness and why it’s essential for your art. After a brief introduction to the course tools, we explore the vital difference between generic character design and capturing a specific identity. You will learn to recognize exactly when likeness matters and how to use it.
MODULE 3 & 4
Master the art of observation by learning how to select and combine high-quality references without letting them restrict your creativity. You will explore how to break down facial features and bodies into basic shape language, using these forms to define a character's personality while maintaining consistent shading and structure.
MODULE 5 & 6
Learn to push past realism by stretching likeness into its simplest style, from lifelike renders to minimalist cartoons. You will discover the 'breaking point' where style overtakes identity and master how to maintain a subject's likeness.
MODULE 7
In the final module, we bridge the gap between practice and professional application. We discuss how to leverage your new mastery of likeness in the industry whether you're pursuing a career as a professional artist or elevating your personal hobby projects to ensure your work stands out in the creative market.
Included in the course you will find:
